Ocean texture checkered board fix?

Featured Replies

Hi all,Is there a fix for what looks like a checkered board pattern on the ocean? I looks like tiles are different tones (light or dark), so when you look out across the ocean you see this unrealistic checkered pattern? Any thoughts?

Are you seeing this all the time or,like me, only at low light, ie- sunrise/sunset, situations? Certain FE water textures will lessen the checkerboard effects at low light and should get rid of them entirely during daylight settings. You may want to try different FE settings and see if you can control them that way.John M

Seams that they are present at any time, maybe more pronounced at different times, I'll have to check that.I'll try tweaking my FE settings,Thanks
